[The idea of accidentally murdering a human being remains a secret nightmare within Bakugo's subconscious. As much as he loves his Quirk and rides proud on his control of it, the obvious threat of misusing it remains buried away in his mind. He pulls his punches when dealing with petty thieves, only breaking out his full power when against people he knows can take it. Because if he ever killed someone, accidental or or purpose. No... No, he couldn't have! This wasn-!!
Bakugo jolts when his name's shouted into his face, though it takes a hand catching him on the shoulder to really jerk him out of the momentary panic. His eyes snap out of their widened zone, focusing on Hiyori a second later.
Not his fault?]
But- If that was a person! [Even if they used to be-! If they had a chance to come back to life, a chance to reclaim their humanity, even in stone form-! If that was a conscious, living being inside that stone flesh-! He just killed them!
Hiyori's yelling about magic, about how vague it is, how the hotel can return people to life, but all of that clashes against a morality screech. He could have defended himself without destroying the statue! If the soul inside had thanked him for freeing them from imprisonment, it would have been more than fine. Instead, lingering regret, sorrow over not getting the chance to live again. And they might've been someone who'd been here before?! What it that was Midoriya?! Or All Might?! Could he have destroyed a statue knowing it was housing Midoriya's soul, when he just wanted to live again?! FUCK!!]
